Level one everything sucks. Especially things that max out at 30

Having been mowed over by a level 40 earlier, I'm going to say they go a bit higher. ;)

The AQ stays delicate for a long time. The ability is a game changer, but you still need to treat her a bit like wizards and witches.

In my last raid, I noticed that bombs and mortars don't do anything to her, but archer towers pick her off very easily.

Holy cow. I thought 30 was big enough guess.

Congrats Entopic! :thumbup
 
So annoyed. Work blocks the server so I can't manage my fresh upgrades or participate in the war until the final hours. I want to know how we're doing!

Both my camps need a total overhaul with the addition of many new defenses and walls.

Ugh:mad
 
Stupid wifi only devices!

I'm off for a week so I'll be in and out randomly.

Good luck with the upgrades! Just keep luring! ��
 
I clicked the TH10 button. Two weeks of hoarding loot and finishing off the walls.

Nice. I am 8 days away from my last defense upgrade being complete (2nd xbow up to level 3). I am going to hang out at TH 9 at least until all of my walls are level 9. Currently about 2/3 are level 9 and the rest are 8. I might even stay at TH 9 until I get some of my walls up to level 10. We shall see.
 
man, u guys are really patient. i finally got my 3rd BH but im still getting bored waiting for all my TH6 upgrades.

Oh shit, thanks! I totally forgot that I don't have to wait to upgrade the lab.

And, yes, I maxed out all the troops in TH8. So, yes, lvl3 pekoe and lvl2 golems. I am well versed in a gowipe attack.

Wannabe,

You're first troop upgrade should be L6 giants. Farming goes to a whole new level with them. No DE is safe once you have them.

Also, if you have ~62500 DE, you can get AQ2 started right away, as AQ1 is instant.

I prefer to level AQ or BK. If played right with L6 giant raids, your AQ, most of the time, won't take any damage. I never barch anymore with TH9, it's just giants/barch(wb) and heal spells.

Maxing Xbows should be your 1st priority with gold. You'd be surprised how little you get attacked once you have them. I'm almost never raided, and always TH sniped. It's a huge detractor.

I'd say my list of defensive upgrades goes like this:

xbows > Wiz Tower > AD > Archer Tower/Tesla > Mortar/Cannon.

Try to do it so your builders come free once every other day. Gives you time to farm gold for the next upgrade.

Getting a Dark Barrack to witches will open up gowiwipe. That will hold you in war until you can lavaloonion. So try and sneak that in when you have too much elixir.
 
I do like to keep my AQ advancing. Currently, she is 20 and my BK is 11.

So, I'm now TH9. Man, the lvl1 AQ is kinda useless unless I just put her in behind my lvl10 BK. By herself, if you just breath on her the wrong way, she dies. I guess I'm gonna be using a bunch of DE trying to upgrade her as much as I can.

Always put her in behind giants or a golem. Get her to L5/10 asap.

The key to her is to let her pick off defenses while they are focused on giants. Then once you get the loot, end the raid before she gets hit and repeat.

congrats on th9! It sucks for the first few months. xbows and wt are crazy expensive. but once the xbows are L3 and you have your l6 giants, it's so much fun.

My AQ is now lvl2 as of this morning. :teeth

Thanks for the advice on the giants. Most of the guys ahead of me in my clan seem to prefer a giant attacks. That makes sense that the AQ doesn't get touched if she sits behind the giants the whole time.

I'm in no hurry to get witches. I'm in a farming clan, so we don't war at all. Plus, I don't want to be tempted to spend any DE. All the DE I have is focused on leveling up my AQ ASAFP.

edit: Also, right now, my main priority is to upgrade my army camps so that I have more troops to raid with.

Waiting days and weeks for upgrades got tedious. If there was a Barf clan that's just for goofing around I might start again but I just started Order and Chaos, and that's taking up the little free time I have.
 
i became a TH9 early January,

i disagree with some advice on here.

my first thing done, both xbows, AQ to lvl 2, getting everything else that was new built for war, then started witches. the spell factory i started after my last war attack.

but the big one, after getting my new stuff up to TH8 levels, i did a mortar. the TH10s, got lvl 7 stuff and the archers took 2 mortar hits.

but the lvl 1 xbows are pretty weak and they cost elixer to refill, i set them up for ground only, to target the AQ and barch on the outside. they will do absolutely nothing to any mid health troop for a while, but that range will wreck farming.

I agree with setting xbows in ground only for farming. If someone wants to use drags or looinion attack to get me, go for it. It rarely happens. I almost never get hogged either, but again if someone wants to use that huge army to get at my resources, they can. My main objective in a farming base is to defend my DE and half my storages vs l6/7 giant and barch attacks. Those are 95% of the attacks that you'll see.

I suggested witches to wannabe, but he isn't in a warring clan. Those are of no use to him outside of war.

Personally, i prefer upgrading Wiz Towers prior to mortars. The dark purple is a huge deterrent, and they can still 1 shot l5 archers and fire much faster. I tend to find mortars too slow. By the time they hit the ground, any strong barch attack will have moved and the mortar whiffing. I set mortars back to be in range of the second level where they troops bunch up/funnel at the 2nd level walls.

Upgrading the AD early is more for war i guess. But it's still good for healer/giant attacks.

Spell factory i think should be one of the first things to upgrade. Not only for war, but for farming. It allows you to raid longer without having to wait for spells. I typically hold 4 heal spells with my giant/barch attacks. usually using 1 heal per raid if needed.

I've been TH9 for about 2 months, and ever since my xbows maxed, i almost never get hit for DE (sans the lightning zaps when i held 120k) and rarely do i get 50%'d. Maybe 1 in 100. Most just TH snipe.

Biggest deterrents with a farming base IMO are black xbows, and dark purple wiz towers.
